In its version of events, the Israeli military said militants of the Iran-backed group Hezbollah had fired anti-tank missiles at Israeli troops, wounding 25 of them. The attack was very close to a UNIFIL post and a tank helping evacuate the casualties under fire then backed into the UNIFIL post, it said. “It is not storming a base. It is not trying to enter a base. It was a tank under heavy fire, mass casualty event, backing up to get out of harm’s way,” the military’s international spokesperson Nadav Shoshani told reporters. In a statement, the military said it used a smoke screen to provide cover for the evacuation of the wounded soldiers but its actions posed no danger to the U.N. peacekeeping force.

OK, sounds plausible enough…

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a statement addressed to U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres: “The time has come for you to withdraw UNIFIL from Hezbollah strongholds and from the combat zones.” "The IDF has requested this repeatedly and has met with repeated refusal, which has the effect of providing Hezbollah terrorists with human shields

That latest failed test was a new system, not yet implemented in Russia’s security structure. Their nuclear capability is for all intents and purposes still a threat.

I think running Biden gives Trump a better chance of winning. It’s obvious Biden isnt fit for the job. I’d vote for a wet sandwich over Trump, but I’m not someone the Democrats have to convince. The Dems need a dramatically different candidate to have a fighting chance this November.

It could’ve been Sanders back in '16, maybe '20, but he’s too old now. Don’t switch one senile old fuck out with another.

I’d be very pleased with AOC, but she isn’t too popular with a lot of people.

Looks like a really fun project, now I want to build one! What’s that structure you’re laying the bricks on called?
